Why Dingus I'm not quite sure I follow you, whatever could you mean?
Pitbulls don't bother me, it's the animals on two legs that one should watch out for! Most of them anyway...

Grovehunter...you'd be way more rad if your name was Groovehunter.

Not that you aren't rad enough as it is...but one can always seek to attain higher levels of radness, don't you think?

Groooooovehunter. Superrad.

Believe me Kate I'm always on the hunt for groove! As far as rad and groovy are concerned, they are only a state of mind, not of physical being.
I am a tree freak, hence the name Grovehunter. I am still amazed at the giant Sequoia after seing 30 of the top 40 largest trees in the world. Of the sixty seven known Sequoia groves I've been to thirty - four of them. So it's Grovehunter, copy that. Now isn't that groooovy raaaaaaaad?
Peace,
GH

There's too many people that have posted that are a little too high strung to be climbers....

:shock: Is it the height or the girth that you find impressive? I am more a fan of girth, myself. ;)

Carry on, groovy grove guy!

this is the conclusion i have come to after spending a packed day there yesterday. dangerous dangerous bad habits/inexperience.

i was there yesterday and my boyfriend decided to solo something without knowing what it was,how hard it was, or how he was going to get down... and then some of the other people we went with tried to do the same thing but bailed after about 15ft. all i could do was shake my head...

Lost summer i was in josua on vacation(yes i now its was hot...). The only climbers i have seen there were climbing really good but. This guy climbed up some 5.11 ore something and was making a big run out. After the first pitch he only climb like 5 meters up. Places 2 cams in a crack and climb all the way up . If he did failed it was a f*cking grounder way didn't he put any more cams .... ??is this a standard way of climbing over there?here in Europe it isn't any way...

I think Hillary is the funniest person I know.

MY question is, have all the gumbies quit going to New Jack? I went there on Sunday and there was a very minimal supply of n00bs available for our entertainment. Whereas, in JTree on Saturday, they were all out in show.

When did trad climbing become trendy? I saw a girl in JTree last weekend carrying her gear around in an REI shopping bag. I don't get it.

Meg

Then again, you wouldn't let me give you a waist belay on Big Mo. Gumby is as Gumby does. Hahahaha.

Curt

For her it was the foot belay or nothing, am I right? :wink:

Girth always saves the day. And at the end of the day girth rules, Don't ya think Kate? You should come and find out for yourself though. You might change your mind or it might even blow it!!

I don't know how to put quotes, but if I did, this one would have a quote from Dingus where he said "the pitbull would lung at me" I was just wondering, how does a pitbull lung? Is that another way of saying he would bark? I don't know, we were talking about spelling and stuff...

Well if you knew how to put quotes on there and shit then you might have had something.

Too bad really, it woulda been keen.

I did have something to say, rather than click a couple buttons I put the quote on the old fashioned way, you know with quotations marks. Anyways, I wasn't too serious, I just thought it was humerous because your post was about spelling and while technically it wasn't a spellling error, it was the wrong word. Calm down, I'm not belittling you or anything. People get too worked up on this site.

I know it wasn't about spelling... it was about pitbull attacks. My brother in law got bit by a pitbull once.

I am probably in that 50% that doesn't know what he is doing. On sunday I almost tossed my rope down before I realized I needed it to rap. :oops:

I guess I could have down soloed since it was an easy 5.9 on Moose Dog Tower. I make more mistakes like that than you would think is possible. Sure I can lead 5.10 & 5.11 in J-tree but I somehow loose my brain once I top out :wink:

Be easy on me ok. I am a life long gumby.
